I love how you don’t want to waste a drop. Feels like it’s honoring not only the work involved in producing the syrup to begin with, but also the contribution of your trees!

[@zekel787]

Earliest I have been to a video. With in 2 min of launch. It still has the MPEG 4 title

[@tobykassulke2385]

Still here even an hour afterwards lol

[@VictorDeMeira]

@@tobykassulke2385 2h now. I think Glen won't realize this until the morning or even later.. I'm curious to know if he'll delete the video or just edit the name and thumbnail

[@TheErador]

I'm guessing this was mischeduled...

[@GlenAndFriendsCooking]

Totally messed up the schedule.

[@arcorange2219]

Always appreciate the KZbin 16:94K MPEG 4 content, thanks Glen.

[@stephenward2743]

Gutted he left us in the dark about the sample rate and bit depth though 😪

[@delirious15]

How the maple turned into the sugar was one of the coolest things ive seen in a while

[@blazingeek]

Who else was early to see the title? Making Maple Sugar KZbin 16:94K MPEG 4

[@MultigrainKevinOs]

Cinematic Maple Syrup experience, the way it was always meant to be

[@lydiamashcka4362]

I am so amazed at how much sugar you got from that bottle, I never would have thought you would get that much. I grow and dry my own herbs in my garden and I fill a large cookie sheet with stems of rosemary and it barely fills a small spice jar.

[@francisvalentinemixes5277]

I wish Maple Syrup wasnt so expensive for us Americans. I would LOVE to try this!

[@JerryB507]

If it wasn't for the cartel (Government Supported Mafia) that controls Canadian Maple Syrup prices, it would be cheaper.

[@peterlamarche247]

@@JerryB507 only in Quebec, we buy from small producers in Ontario but it’s still not cheap.

[@honthirty_]

Vermont and Maine have many small producers.

[@Endercreeper853]

imagine, we are actually finishing some as I type this!

[@murlthomas2243]

Tuesday? How lucky are we? Very! Glad to know how to make the crystalline form of maple sugar. Just in case.

[@KnightWeather]

Love adding mpeg to my syrups too 😋

[@amandahodgin9316]

My cousin taps over 200 maple trees on her property and boils it down for syrup every year. She has already begun tapping her trees. I’m not a drinker (although, I find Cocktails After Dark fascinating) but my cousin swears that pure maple sap mixed with gin is a really lovely drink. You might want to give it a try.

[@davidb9547]

Next time I see this done will be the second time. I love seeing things I've never seen before. Thank you Glen.

[@zacharymocek554]

Went to a maple sugar festival last year and a reenactor showed us how the early french settlers learned how to tap trees and bowl down the sap to syrup and sugar from the indigenous peoples. Very interesting and I'm glad you showed me how to do it in a modern kitchen. Maple syrup and the maple sugar add the best flavor to everything.

[@laurietuzzato5501]

Glad to see you aren’t the only one of the Maxwell House isn’t the only thing ‘good to the last drop’😂😂😂

[@LadyElaineLovegood]

Cooking is magic! Take hot sticky liquid, beat the daylights out of it and voila - sugar crystals.

[@plumhollow5850]

You did not mention the true story of the Great Canadian Maple Sugar heist of 2011. Biggest heist in Canadian history.

[@erinmcgrathejm4985]

This is right down my alley. Every Christmas (because it’s the only time I can find it where I live) I have to have maple sugar candy. It’s a signature Christmas flavor for me!

[@cremebrulee4759]

It is wonderful!

[@rabidsamfan]

Love videos like this one. A technique I never knew.

[@daneekaplan4284]

I love this. My late father used to tap trees on his hunting property. He made a boiling system -welded up a barrel into a cooking vessel and was able to tap quite a few trees every year. For many, many years I had ample maple syrup. I might have to g I’ve this a try even though I have to purchase the syrup= it just looks like something fun I need to try

[@OptimusWombat]

I wasn't expecting a video to drop at the stroke of midnight!

[@LeesaDeAndrea]

That magic moment when it converts from liquid to crystals, reminds me of my high school chemistry class days.

[@normaanderson2353]

Congratulations on 500K subscribers!!!

[@Katholikos78]

Here in the Deep South, that stuff is expensive. I love real Maple Syrup. Dark and Light both.

[@TheKitchenNinja]

One thing I miss about living in SW Ontario is going to places like Jakeman's and other maple syrup farms. One day I hope to bring my partner for a visit from BC at the right time of year so she can taste and smell what it's like to get the good stuff straight from the source!

[@vickyleather1147]

Very interesting, especially for those of us who would never have the opportunity to do this. Thank you.

[@amyeagleton697]

Early video, score! I had no idea this was how maple sugar was made, seems fairly simple.

[@michaelstevens1027]

Makes me want to try this with Store bought Maple Syrup.

[@joshs4561]

When he said that he gets syrup for the price of wood and propane that hit home. We tap 170 and still evey drop is precious

[@wiseSYW]

Making Maple Sugar KZbin 16:9 4K MPEG 4 is one of the videos of all time

[@melissab5612]

now I want to make this ...i remember tapping trees when i was little with my grandparents....i bet its good coffee 😊

[@HiVizCamo]

There aren't many things more Canadian than this, and I'm not talking about hockey! Thanks for doing these, helps me remember some of the important things about this country.

[@MM-kh7nx]

Congrats on 500K subs Glen and Julie!

[@GrainneDhu]

So cool! I've seen how maple sugar is done on a more commercial scale but I'm fascinated by the how-to of doing it in a home kitchen (albeit a kitchen much nicer than will ever be seen in my home!). Great video.

[@GrainneDhu]

@@punkdigerati Yes, I know--he did a behind the scenes, tour the studio video a while back. My comment was meant to be gently teasing but I find tone difficult to convey on the internet.

[@yvesmorneau2492]

You signal spring better then Wiarton Willy :) Always well done

[@Yoda63]

Some people say to add butter to jam while cooking to prevent foam from forming but in my experience it makes the jam spoil faster. I imagine the same thing would happen if you added butter maple sugar.

[@ellengrasso7896]

My maternal aunt and uncle had a "sugar bush" (as they called their maple trees) on their farm in Upper Peninsula Michigan. It smelled like heaven in their syrup making shed!! (A lot of work!!)

[@purpletoad352]

That exact temp is going to be elevation dependent. Since the temperature depends upon sugar content, you aiming for a specific % of sugar in the pot.

[@sixtomidnight1492]

We appreciate your description note and always recommend your videos to our friends and family. Thank you!

[@itsmeanne]

Mmmmmmmm maple syrup is liquid gold in the culinary world imo. If I lived in Canada, you couldn’t trust me around your maple trees at tree tapping time lol Mmmmmm delicious!!!! Maple sugar sounds heavenly! I wonder if those maple pearls would be a decadent substitute for regular pearl sugar for Belgian waffles?

[@adamjchafe]

Can't wait to tap my trees in a few more weeks (Longer winter here in Newfoundland) but in the meantime I am going to pick up a cheap bottle of maple syrup from Costco and make this.

[@Ozrichead]

Congratulations on 500k subs!

[@cathylaycock5598]

I love this idea. I put a small piece of dried bread in my golden brown sugar jar and it never gets chunky

[@MetricJester]

I put maple sugar in my coffee in the morning. I'm allergic to sugar cane, so maple sugar is perfect for me.

[@nadurkee46]

Fascinating to watch. I like learning new things.

[@SaturdayProjects]

Now I’m craving maple fudge.

[@TheMichaellathrop]

One trick for using those thermal probe style thermometers is to attach a binder clip to the side of the pot or pan your using and use the clip handles to hold the probe in place off of the bottom.

[@crisaghemo]

How to prevent brown sugar from clumping into a block (and release it if it's solidified already): Put a slice of bread in the container on top of the sugar. Sounds silly but I swear it's worked every time for me. If it's a solid chunk it took a bit to loosen once I stuck the slice, but eventually it just loosened. And any brown sugar container I've had (properly sealed of course) with a slice of bread in it has never solidified on me no matter how long it was in my cupboard. And I don't bake often so I've had one container for over a year. Absolutely no idea what sort of magic goes on for it to work, but it does work.

[@crisaghemo]

@@cynthiafisher9907 Nope. Eventually the bread gets super hard, but you just swap it out. Takes a while though.

[@virginiaf.5764]

Apples do the same thing. Though not stored long term, a piece of apple added to rock-hard brown sugar softens it right up.

[@ulrikwener]

I'll wait for the MKV version. ❤️

[@spudsrus]

This video has made me insanely jealous. Wish I lived in Canada

[@connie8298]

Love maple sugar (though mine is purchased). Nothing, I mean nothing, is better to sweeten porridge oats and many other things. So interesting to see how it is made. I'm in the US, but thankfully my state makes some darn good maple syrup, too. Thank you for another great video.

[@chrisk5328]

Who knew it was this easy to make maple sugar? Very cool Glen!

[@Mowgi]

Glen, you have multiple channels now. Would you ever consider another channel about your production work? Your camera gear,how you shoot, lighting, the business side, etc?

[@justmutantjed]

Dang, this looks great! I'm probably never going to get the opportunity to try this for myself, but I always enjoy seeing this sort of content. If the opportunity arises later, then I can trot out the knowledge. EDIT to add: In addition to good tea-sweetener, those little nuggets of Maple Candy crystals would also probably make an amazing Old-Fashioned cocktail!

[@sharakirkby2744]

Cool now I know how to make maple sugar sugar. Next time I’ll buy 2 maple syrup and use one for making the sugar granules.😊💖 Thank you. Safe flying!

[@rdpj7791]

Love this!

[@SledDog5678]

So cool! Thank you!

[@debbieosredkernelson13]

Fascinating!

[@EastSider48215]

“A liter of last year’s maple syrup.” This is why Canadians are the envy of the world.

[@na195097]

I envy anyone that has their own maple trees. That looks delish.

[@leciareeve8089]

This is amazing! Thank you!

[@traceyallen8286]

Fascinating

[@sheu.6477]

Thank you!

[@chuckismyYTname]

Amazing 👏

[@lesliemoiseauthor]

I will never be able to do this, but I enjoyed this so much. Thank you 💓

[@frhythms]

Wow. That's so cool !

[@Traderjoe]

A few years ago I bought a bottle of maple water from the local Korean market and it was fantastic. Then I found that people tap the trees the same way they tap them for syrup and you can get quite a bit of water and it has a subtle hint of maple taste and supposedly the water is quite healthy and good for you.

[@GlenAndFriendsCooking]

Most of the big Maple producers (Big Maple) use reverse osmosis on the raw sap to remove the majority of water to save on boil time / cost - Maple Water has become an important secondary product for that 'leftover' water.

[@mr4611johnston]

Holy moly are you lucky! I wish I could have something as amazing as Maple sugar in my life.

[@TuckerDale89]

I bet that leftover maple sugar water would be good spritz on a brisket or ribs

[@Sarah-xj9kv]

We also have maple trees my Dad taps them and boils it down and makes syrup it’s amazing

[@shirleyannconfer9651]

Maple sugar cotton candy is absolutely heavenly.

[@mzimmerman1988]

Woah... very nice!

[@toniajohnson9223]

Awesome video thanks ❤

[@kathyclarke6327]

That was amazing 👏🥰

[@smwillia]

I bet that sugar would work stunningly in pancakes, waffles, and French toast.

It is like magic. Omg that is so amazing.

[@onamuir4985]

This was brilliant and invaluable. Thank you!

[@sharons6290]

Learn something new today, always thought maple sugar was made same way brown sugar was with molasses only adding the maple syrup to the sugar. I bet your extra mix would also be good to add to confectionary sugar when making an icing. Thank you

[@RoseBud-fk4qg]

Excellent job 👏 👍 👌 🙌

[@paulaoyedele2081]

This video was the most satisfying! What a great idea.

[@lesliespann6420]

Amazing! I've learned so many things from you! Thank you for sharing!

What a cool bit of info! I will try this one day.

Glen you're such a great dude. God bless you.

[@jusjukinallen8845]

Love your video. Now to get the energy and time to do this. Thank you.

[@floief]

Puts me in mind of the packages my grandmother's family would send to her with her favorite tea and maple sugar inside.

[@hugitkissitloveit8640]

So I made this and it turned out great! Thanks, Glen ⭐️

[@OneMadPanda]

Good old Making Maple Sugar KZbin 16:94K MPEG 4. Makes ya feel right at home when that smell fills your kitchen.

[@chantalbaxter9126]

Wow! So easy. Thanks friend. Going to try this today.

[@cyberleone00]
